Fiery Garlic Green Beans

​

Prep Time: 10 Min
Cook Time: 15 Min

Yields: 2 - 3 Servings

What You Need

• 2 Tbsp. EVOO
• 3 Red Thai Chilis, sliced (include seeds)
• 340g bag Haricots Verts (Green beans)
• 1/3 C Water
• 5 cloves Garlic, crushed & finely minced
• 2 Tbsp. Unsalted Butter
• 1/3 C Grana Padano, finely shredded
• 1/2 Lemon, zest & juice
• Himalayan Salt & Cracked Pepper
• Serve with additional Lemon Wedges

Directions

• Begin heating the EVOO and Thai chilis in a large, 12" skillet set to about medium. Once heated, let those chilis sizzle away for about a minute before adding the green beans to the skillet. Season liberally with salt and a good pinch of two of pepper, toss, and let the beans cook about 10 minutes. During that ten minutes, flip / toss them every couple minutes, allowing them to get some good colour before being flipped.​

​

• After the 10 minutes, reduce your heat slightly and add the water. Cover the skillet for about 3 minutes. Once uncovered, toss your beans again and hit them with some more salt & pep. Now, let the beans continue to cook until the water has almost entirely reduced and beans are tender crisp.
• Add the garlic & butter to the skillet and start tossing the beans over the heat until the butter is melty and garlic is dispersed nicely. After only a minute, you can turn off the heat. Squeeze in the lemon juice and toss the beans with the grana padano and lemon zest. 
• Before serving, taste one and season the beans liberally at this point to taste. Get them on to a serving dish with additional lemon wedges and that's that! ENJOY!
